The new Jaguar was an instant hit at its 1948 Earl’s Court Motor Show introduction, nd it was so modern and so powerful that it immediately developed a devoted following among those who could indulge in the nearly $4,000 price at a time, hich was quite extravagant, s the average annual salary was only $3,600. The model was a consistent winner in the hearts of owners and on race tracks everywhere. It underwent continued development until the final variant, he XK150, as introduced in 1957 as a 1958 model. This ultimate development of the XK line has the most power, omfort, nd performance. It was also the first production car with four-wheel disc brakes, eaning that, or the first time, he Jag had stopping power equal to its horsepower. The XK150 was also significantly restyled with a higher beltline and only a subtle dip ahead of the rear fender. Additionally, he windshield was now a single piece, nd the distinctive Jaguar grille was retained but widened. The resulting profile brought the car up to date and hinted at its grand touring character. This XK150 was completed on February 15, 960, nd then shipped to Jaguar of Eastern Canada. It was equipped with the desirable 3.8-liter engine and fitted with the so-called B-type cylinder head, s found on the 3.4-liter Special Equipment model. Its 220 horsepower was a welcome addition, s the Standard and SE 3.4-liters produced 190- and 210-horsepower ratings, espectively. As this car is a drophead coupe, t is one of only two thousand six hundred seventy-two produced, hich represents just twenty-eight percent of total XK150 production.
